“I guess I’m not one of those “glass half full” kind of guys.”
You have a good understanding of human nature, that’s all. It’s a scary fact that the veneer of “civilization” can be miles and miles miles wide but it’s never more than about half an inch deep. And it doesn’t take much to strip it away.
On that note I bid you a pleasant day. Find some beauty in it.
Best,

Someone once said that civilization is just a thin crust over a bubbling caldron of barbarism.
As for your sentiment about having a pleasant day, thanks. But all my days are pleasant because of my wife and my dog, and a small group of family and good friends.
